In this powerful and deeply personal episode of WV Uncommonplace, we sit down with Jennifer Chase, certified life coach and founder of Rise Addiction Life Coaching. Jennifer shares her remarkable story of survival, resilience, and transformation as both a woman in long-term recovery and a mother navigating the painful realities of her son’s addiction.

From living through addiction herself, to the heartbreaking realization that she was unknowingly supplying drugs to her son, Jennifer has experienced the cycle of addiction from every angle—daughter of an alcoholic, person in recovery, and parent. Today, she channels those hard-won lessons into coaching individuals and families through their own recovery journeys.
